Main advantages:

  • Environmentally friendly material: more than 90% is gypsum, 6% is cardboard, the rest is moisture, starch and organic surfactants
  • Utilities, pipes, ventilation ducts located at different heights cannot be hidden under a single-level structure; the selected suspended ceiling consisting of plasterboard sheets will help brilliantly solve the paradox that has arisen
  • To create comfort, it is customary to zone by space; a 1-level ceiling in the intended room is of little functionality; a two-level suspended ceiling will achieve the result.
  • The purpose of any room requires varying degrees of illumination. In the bedroom directly above the bed, soft twilight is necessary to achieve complete comfort. Of course, you can hang chandeliers, sconces, and table lamps everywhere, taking away the space. But modern construction solutions should be used, a two-level design with spotlights - saving space. Lighting will complement the interior design.

For example, multi-level gypsum board cladding in a hall, lounge room, or reception room can be divided using waves, arches, horizontal zigzags and contour lighting. It is very practical, convenient and pleasing to the eye with its effectiveness. The same principle applies to dividing the work area from the bedroom.

Reviews

“From my point of view, the ceilings in the bedroom, and in other rooms, should only be white, well, in extreme cases, pastel colors. Firstly, they will fit perfectly with any wall decoration, and secondly, dark colors “pressure”, and the ceilings will appear lower due to such colors.” Alexey, Pushkino

“I think it all depends on the designer. If there is minimal furniture in the room, and there is no excess pattern on the walls, then colored ceilings will look very original. If the designer has problems with taste, then the bright room will look ugly. Although, I agree, the tones in the bedroom should be muted, otherwise you won’t fall asleep.” Oleg, Simferopol

“I think the most difficult thing is bending the sheets. Wet sheets are laid out on special forms for drying. Because ceilings should be curved, not crooked.” Alexey, Pushkino

“By the way, I saw my friends have a combination of plasterboard on the ceiling with suspended ceilings. Original." Leonid Sergeevich, Ivanovo

A few design recommendations:

  • When developing a project for a future structure, it is necessary to take into account the height of the bedroom; different levels will not look good if the height of the room is less than 2.5 m; they will also take at least 15 cm.
  • The correct design of the upper part of the room for sleeping with poor illumination by natural light will play a big role; it should not be too complicated so as not to visually make the room smaller. Glossy ones, on the contrary, will give a feeling of greater height to the room and make it lighter.
  • Naturally, the color of the suspended ceiling should be combined with the design of the walls. Everyone has their own preference, some like calm tones, while others like rich ones, but a light room will look much better than dark tones.
  • You can add your own twist and make exclusive ceilings using stucco, stepped or multi-level construction, artistic painting - everything will depend on how deep the owner’s imagination is.
  • Spotlights can create an extraordinary atmosphere, twinkling and reminiscent of stars.
  • In a dimly lit room, you can do without a chandelier; this is quite simple to do, make the ceiling in the form of a horseshoe directed towards the window and place spotlights around the perimeter of this structure. This option will make the bedroom even taller.
  • In order to visually raise the ceiling, you need to make it a tone lighter than the walls and the direction of the lamps should be upward
  • New modern lighting systems will be able to adjust the light intensity in the rest room according to your wishes.
